Cuba - Climate

Photo by: TEMISTOCLE LUCARELLI

Except in the mountains, the climate of Cuba is semitropical or
temperate. The average minimum temperature is 21°
C
(70°
F
), the average maximum 27°
C
(81°
F
). The mean temperature at Havana is about 25°
C
(77°
F
). The trade winds and sea breezes make coastal areas more habitable
than temperature alone would indicate. Cuba has a rainy season from May
to October. The mountain areas have an average precipitation of more
than 180 cm (70 in); most of the lowland area has from 90 to 140 cm
(35–55 in) annually; and the area around Guantánamo Bay
has less than 65 cm (26 in). Droughts are common. Cuba's eastern
coast is often hit by hurricanes from August to October, resulting in
great economic loss.
